Her Health Impaired-sh She Returns TO
New York and Manager Abbey Cam

TO Proceed ON the Tour-Her Friends
Not Surprised by the Apparently
UnIooked.For COlIapse-Abbey Be-
Ieves She VIII BE All Right Shortly.
The sad and sudden end to Nine. Etelka
Gerster's concert tour will be more than re-
GREETED by her host of friends. She was to
have appeared in Hartford last night, but did
not. She is at her brothers, DIR. Herster, at
No. Sc East Twenty-ffth street, New York.
Here she will remain for several weeks at
least in the hope that care and rest may re-
store her health.
1t was with much surprise that after the
concert here on Saturday niGht she informed
Manager Henry Abbey that she was not
strong enough to proceed on the tour which
had been mapped out for ner. Mr.. Abbey
was somewhat astonished by this
declaration on her part. He heard
her sing in New York and he listened to the
same selections here. He was pleased and
was filed with hope when he listened to heI
at the Hyperion. He was in a happy frame
of mind because she did considerably better
than in New York and under circumstances
Wn1cl were not nearly 30 IaVOr&Dl0 aS III Tie
metropolis. He and his lieutenants who
were present thought her voice remarkably
improved in condition. They were rejoiced
although they had feared the worst, that
there was hope after all for her voice and
that their apprehenslons had been exagger-
ated. It was seen at the time, though, thai
the singers embarrassment was probably
nothing more serious than an aggravated
nervous affection of the throat
Her present condition verifes only too de
cisively the reports that reached Americf
months ago to the effect that she was physi'
cally undone She has been a very sicl
woman for long time. These reports were
always persistently denounced as falee. Al

| MED.
Manager Abbey states that the concert tou1
has been only temporarily suspended becaus'
of the stars physical weakness. Nine. Ger
| ster, he said, felt that thorough rest of foul
| or six weeks would prove all that was needed
| to completely restore her health. For tina
| reason he had decided to close the tour for
| time. He was confident that at the end of
| month OF SO she would be able to continu
/ toward a repetition of her brilliant triumph
| of four years ago. The decided improvement
/ of Gerster's voice evinced in her work unde

| vinoes him that her ultimate recovery is Ger
| tain.
| To those familiar with Nine. Gerster's at
fairs within the past eight or ten month
there is nothing surprising in this apparent
| unlooked-for collapse.

Mr.. Arthur Rehan's company gave an ad-
mirable presentation of Augustin Days
/ success, "Nancy & Co., at the New Haven
Opera House last evening The company is
without doubt the best comedy organization
now travelling. 1t comprises artists of well
known ability, including Miss Carrie Turner
and Mr.. George Parkes, and is the only one
authorized to produce Mr.. Augustin Daly's
plays. Both of the pieces which This COM
pany present attained long runs at the Fifth
Avenue theater and are put upon the stage
with adequate costumes, scenery and prop
critics seldom seen outside of New York city.
Miss Turner was simply charming as CLANCY
Brasher." One thing entities her to the re-
spect of all theater-goers-she resists
the temptation to initiate Ada Rehan.
Miss Rehan made great hit in the role
and played it for months to packed
houses. Nothing could have been easier for
Miss Turner than to simply copy the methods
used by the creator of the character. But
Miss Turner is a true artist, who prefers to
play every character according to her own
ideas, and the result is that she has her own
admirers as well as Miss Rehan. The re-
manning members are all frst-rate artists, who
seem to feel that they have been intrusted
with the responsibility of keeping good Mr..
Days reputation in those cities which are
seldom visited by his metropolitan company.
Glove in Harness" will be given this even
ing and at a special matinee tomorrow after
moor, and "Nancy & Co." will be repeated to-
morrow evening. There will be large audi
enees at all these performances.
